In the Zone is the Wellcome Trust's major
initiative inspired by the London 2012 Olympic and Paralympic
Games. It provides a fun, free and fascinating way of using science
to discover how our bodies work during sport, activity, movement
and rest.
In the Zone
The major elements of the In the Zone initiative are:
- Free science investigation kits for all schools in the UK,
bringing the science of the human body to life in the
classroom.
- A touring exhibition, engaging people of all ages with the
science of our incredible human body, in relation to sport and
movement.
Teachers can download PowerPoints, editable Teacher and Student
Notes, and extra resources to support you in delivering In the Zone
investigations in your classroom.
4-11 year olds can
play games about your brilliant bodies.
11-19 year olds can use the Live Data Zone to upload the
results of In the Zone experiments and compare to other students
across the UK.
